Dr. Vincent Fitch, PsyD

Licensed Psychologist

licensed psychologist in Atlanta Dr. vincent fitch.
As a licensed psychologist extensively trained in the interactions between mind and body, I take a holistic approach to helping my clients.  I have significant experience in working with eating disorders, athletes, and health behavior change. I work to improve overall functioning with teens, young adults, and adults. I provide individual therapy as well as family therapy. I help my clients gain more control of their lives and realize themselves outside of their own specific concerns. Our therapeutic relationship will empower you to live your best life.

I have worked with clients in various settings including hospitals, medical centers, residential facilities, intensive-outpatient programs, and private practice. I use evidence-based approaches while being sensitive to the unique differences of all my clients. In our time together you can expect empathy, honesty, and a therapist that will keep you accountable for becoming the best version of yourself.

While I make mention above of various areas of my experience, I am also aware that most mental health concerns do not occur exclusively. I have significant experience working with clients struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, sleep, substances, OCD, relationships, and health conditions, and the influences of personality features in interpersonal functioning. At the Veterans Affairs Medical Centers, I worked with many clients coping with trauma. In therapy, together we will first establish goals that incorporate your concerns and the following sessions will be used to make progress toward these goals.

Therapy Approach

I think it is important to build a connection with the client prior to engaging in deeper work. I believe in a humanistic, person-centered approach to make sure I have a good rapport with my clients. I am primarily a Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) therapist. I also pull from other therapies including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Interpersonal, Solution Focused, and Psychodynamic when applicable. I always tailor my approach to the client as opposed to forcing them to fit a certain “mold.”

What would you say to someone who is considering therapy?

First of all, thank you for considering therapy. I realize the stigma that can come along with mental health. Therapy is not as scary as you think it is, but it does take work. For me as a therapist, I will work as hard as I can for you with the hopes that you work hard too. I think it is very fulfilling and that you can learn a lot about yourself. I know being vulnerable is hard. It may not be easy at first, but I think the benefits are well worth it.
